Projecting Elfrid Payton's Stats in 2015‑16
1 / 9Scoring Average Projection: 11.3 Josh Cohen’s Analysis: Payton averaged 11.1 points after the All-Star break (7.9 before), which is a sign he was developing more confidence with his scoring arsenal late in the season. While he was a substandard perimeter shooter (26 percent on 42 attempts from 3-point distance) and though the average distance on his shot attempts was just 6.9 feet from the hoop, Payton is very comfortable scoring on teardrops, running floaters and little shot puts near the rim.
